Acclaimed classical-soul pianist, composer, producer and the UK’s biggest selling pianist of this year so far, Alexis Ffrench, has unveiled his new single ‘Walk With Us’ with 100% of Artist record royalties and Label net proceeds of the audio single supporting the Black Lives Matter movement. The track is taken from his eagerly anticipated new deluxe album, ‘Dreamland’, which will be released on the 9th October on Sony Music.

Coinciding with the anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s iconic and inspirational ‘I Have A Dream’ speech during the 1963 March on Washington, the stunning track provides a poignant musical moment for reflection.
Alexis Ffrench comments “I stand in solidarity with the global fight against racial injustice and inequality, and proudly lend my musical voice to the work of the Black Lives Matter movement to help bring about a more equal society – free from persecution, oppression and discrimination.”
The album finds him sketching a musical landscape more Moby than Beethoven, more Air than Bach and driven by a love of Tyler The Creator, Anderson. Paak and Kaytranada.
Alexis Ffrench has high ambition. This exceptional pianist and composer who trained at the Purcell School, The Guildhall School of Music and Drama and the Royal Academy, wants to bring joy to a world of troubled times. He also wants to change the way people perceive classical music and to help make it more inclusive and democratic, more relevant to the society in which we live.
